How I Store Pantry Staples

May 25, 2017 Katy Leave a Comment

When I'm putting things away in my pantry, function usually wins over form.  I need it to work more than I need it to look pretty.  But I do still enjoy seeing things lined up neat and tidy, and I try to choose containers and storage options that look nice, even if they don't all match.  Here are some of the ways I store my pantry staples. Jars! Some canning jars I purchased when they were on sale. I also saved some old applesauce jars, although the best price on applesauce where we shop … [Read more...]

We've all had it happen. You pull open the veggie drawer in your refrigerator to find a wilted, liquidy mass of spinach.  Or your tomatoes are growing fuzz on the counter.  Or your bananas have gone beyond ripe into fruit fly heaven.  But there are ways to save that produce, even if you're not sure what you want to use it for in the future.

How We Organize Dress Up Clothes

January 17, 2017 Katy Leave a Comment

I have a love/hate relationship with a lot of my childrens' toys.  I love that play doh helps them with motor skills and get them to be super creative, but it gets all over the table and floors.  Legos are really awesome for building whatever they can come up with, but I'm constantly finding little pieces all over the house.  And dress up clothes?  Lots of fun to see them pretend, but they constantly ended up dumped out in a big pile on the floor so that someone could find one item.

2017: The Year of Finishing

January 3, 2017 Katy 1 Comment

If you're on my email list, you got a sneak peek at my word of the year already.  For me, this is the Year of Finishing.  From the easy things, like a few specific craft projects I've had in mind for YEARS and a small list of books I've been meaning to read for forever, to the more difficult things, like finishing the decluttering of the whole house, and a few others I'm not ready to talk about just yet.  This year, they're getting done. photo credit Over the past few weeks, I've been … [Read more...]
